A Review of Moonlight Tales – Werewolf and Werebear Essentials
A great fan favorite among modders, Moonlight Tales – Werewolf and Werebear Essentials is an incredibly comprehensive overhaul of one of the more beloved games from previous titles. Employing a high-decibel level of atmosphere, this overhaul manages to create a dark, moody, yet ever-present environment. If you have always wanted to play a game where the sun rises every morning, or where the moon covers the sky at night, you will definitely want to check out Moonlight Tales – Werewolf and Werebear Essentials. The mod also gives you a chance to play with werewolves, and the ability to completely overhaul your character using a large number of different skin choices and body piercings.
As far as features go, there are literally thousands of tweaks, enhancements, and customizations that can be made to the vanilla game in this mod. New hairstyles and facial expressions give the characters in Moonlight Tales – Werewolf and Werebear Essentials a truly unique look, while new items, weapons, armor, quests, and other aspects of the game are designed with the user in mind. Many of these additions come as part of an overhaul to the vanilla game, but many are entirely new to the creation of this mod. It’s certainly the best overhaul of its kind and one of the easiest to get started with. It has an extremely high user rating, thanks to the high quality of its content and the user-friendly gameplay.
One thing that is different about this game is that instead of playing as a werewolf, you instead play as a werebear – a much more versatile character, capable of both combat and stealth. There is also a new ability introduced to the game called the Moonkin, which allows the player to turn into a powerful being made out of moon energy, called a Moonkin. This new ability makes it possible for you to skip regular dialogues (and is strongly recommended to do so if you’re a purist), which are common in vanilla games where the developers had to cut down on the time required to convey ideas and make quests fit in with the rest of the game’s mechanics. Another great feature is the new ability to change the appearance and voice of your character by equipping different skins, which can also be used to acquire new powers or new skills. All of these changes together make Moonlight Tales – Werewolf and Werebear Essentials a truly exciting game to play, and one that brings a lot of fun to the role-playing genre.
